Just a Breathy Sigh

A breathy sigh that moved the air encircled us with lusty flair. Its sweet and tender brush of love Left unsaid our intention there. Some deep and thoughtful bold assertion Drew us closer into its glare And staved away intrusion of all others Lest they disturb the passion bared, And sweet the savory music flowed Around, about, above, below Until we floated on the brink Of true love's kiss and knowing wink. Love speaks to us on deeper levels Where mere words cannot communicate. How strong the pull of your embrace And sweetly tinted kiss upon your face. Each breathy sigh wafts through space No matter where you go from me. My heart knows each step you take, And when you think of me Every breath is shared with you Every moment of love in tune, Each sacred dream we share together, And hope for futures yet unplanned, Caress the air with sweet perfume To pull us closer back together. Because our love remains strong and true, I dare not take a breath without you. Copyright © Chula Fleming 3/16/1982
